The Pacific region has a lot to offer when it comes to nature and adventure. It’s not only the Pacific coast, but also the rainforest area in Chocó you can visit. Among the activities at the coast there is traditional fishing, scuba diving, and boat trips. When you go into the rainforest, we can offer jungle hikes, boat trips over Jungle Rivers, visiting indigenous communities, or activities related to flora and fauna observation, which is in this region among the most diverse on the planet.
Every year, between the months of June/July to October/November, it’s the season of the humpback whales. Visiting the Pacific during these months is an absolute highlight, as you can not only spot them out of your hammock at the ecolodge, but also during the special boat trips, to get closer to these amazing mammals.
Diving in the Pacific is a completely different experience than diving in the Caribbean. Different coral reefs, and bigger fish. Among the best places to dive are Malpelo and Gorgona Island, but there are also very good options in Nuquí and Bahía Solano.
The Pacific is a popular destination for traditional fishing. Sailing in salt water, the recommended sites for traditional fishing in the Pacific are Juanchaco, Sanquianga National Park, Nuquí, Cabo Marzo and Bahía Solano. Here you can find fish such as wahoo, sierras and gilthead bream, among others.
The Pacific region and especially parts of the Chocó jungle, are considered among the most biodiverse areas on the planet. If you are a nature lover who is interested in flora and fauna, the Pacific will undoubtedly offer you plenty of highlights to include in your stay in Colombia.
